sudo apt-get install php-redis stopped to work

in our CircleCI build, we have a few months this installation of PHP redis but it stopped to work today. The return message is below.

Please, do you know how to fix it? I am a little confused what to do. Thank you for your help.

sudo apt-get install php-redis Reading package lists... Done

sudo apt-get install php-redis returned exit code 100

It sounds as though there are other dependencies which are not installed by the main package. This usually happens to me when I install by dpkg (a downloaded Chrome deb package is the usual one).

When you run 

sudo apt-get upgrade

It will usually tell you there has been some installation failure and suggests that you run 

sudo apt-get -f install

These will usually resolve the dependencies and install any extra packages required.
